When you open this, you'll see a picture of Obama's inauguration ceremony.

Left click to move the picture around.

Select the zoom and zoom in on the crowd.

Wait a second or two and you get a high resolution picture of faces up to half a mile away.


If this is a repost, I don't give a toss....smile

Interesting pic. Not just one shot though is it. Some massive collage.

A slight exaggeration biggrin

The folk on the other side of the river aren't even that far, and they're pretty indistinct.

Tis an impressive piece of photostitching though thumbup

There are also some hideous deaths on the Obama one, quite a few people being decapitated and no one batting an eyelid. That's Washington for you, murder central.

If you look slightly to the left and near the bottom yyoucan see a black speaker box on a stand. Next to it is a black guy, bald with shades on.

To the left of him as you look at the picture there is a guy wearing a red wooly hat at the front of his head and a brown hat on the back of his head. Whats going on there then?
